Lynn I love my Sidekick, well actually my Tag along. I use it almost every day and it's invaluable for those little dies just as you say.
I've given one to my grandsons' school along with dies that I don't use any more and the children love it. I don't see them for sale anymore but I have a spare just incase that I got from Sizzix in a sale. I hope it doesn't give up on me - I'm not sure what I would do without it!
